WEC 45 ‘Cerrone vs Ratcliff’ Fighter Payouts

The NSAC has released the fighter payouts for WEC 45 “Cerrone vs Ratcliff.” Keep in mind, these figures represent the base contracted pay the fighter receives from the promotion. These figures do not include any additional undisclosed bonuses or sponsorship money, which in many cases exceeds a fighter’s base pay. These numbers also do not account for taxes, insurance, and license fees.

Same story, different show. Little guys mean little paychecks. Donald Cerrone and Joseph Benavidez topped the list with $24k and $25k, respectively. Chris Horodecki took home $12k in a losing effort. I wonder how that compares to what he was scheduled to make for Affliction.
